We treat the text summarization problem as maximizing a submodular function under a budget constraint. We show, both theoretically and empirically, a modified greedy algorithm can...
To reduce the amount of data transfer in networked control systems and wireless sensor networks, measurements are usually taken only when an event occurs, rather than at each synch...
Abstract— Research on numerical solution methods for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) has primarily focused on discrete-state models, and these algorithms ...
—Broadcast is one of the most fundamental services in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). It facilitates sensor nodes to propagate messages across the whole network, serving a wide ...
— A new rate control algorithm for the H.264 encoder is developed in this work. There are several unique features in the proposed rate control scheme. First, a two-stage encoding...
